Singular brilliant author paired with singular brilliant narrator once again. It’s almost unfair.

I broke this story 13 years ago in my novel The Cold Cold Ground
all the beats, everything, I named names, I referenced the murders, the abductions, the IRA Army Council, MI5...
headline news today apparently but I told the EXACT story 13 years ago...
